Windows 11 Insider Preview 22581.1 ni_release

I have the watermark issue after installing this release it also turns Windows 11 into an evaluation copy with an expiry date and I can no longer move icons in the system tray they are frozen in place.

I have left the Insider program temporarily so this update doesn't cause havoc have never seen this before and have been a member for many years.

        Hello,
        At the moment as long as your device is running with Win11 with Dev Channel you cannot remove the watermarks. Regarding the Taskbar issue are u saying that you cannot drag icon to system tray or something else?

    Because it's an evaluation copy with an expiry date
    since when such builds don't have that watermark?

        Evaluation here means a timebomed build, it'd test build not a final build
